Discussed Today, In Detail:
SCOTUS about to rule against Trump on tax returns, says Obama's SCOTUS lawyer
The Supreme Court will rule on the fate of Pres. Trump’s long-secret tax returns
by mid-July and possibly sooner, and Pres. Obama’s Supreme Court litigator says
it will likely be a partial loss for Trump. “This whole Russia story may very
well color” the decision, says Neal Katyal, explaining that legitimate questions
about Trump’s links to Russia argue in favor of a legal probe of his taxes.
Katyal discusses the case with MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber.

coronavirus, now Trump allies are joining the CDC (and the medical consensus) in
urging people to wear masks during the virus pandemic. MSNBC’s Ari Melber
reports on how conservatives ranging from Fox News hosts to elected Republicans
are now speaking out, a measurable shift from earlier responses to the virus, in
this excerpt from an MSNBC segment.
